WCAT Radio The Open Door (August 31, 2018)
This week we have special guests: Desmond Silveira, former National Committee member and California gubernatorial candidate for the American Solidarity Party; Aaron Hamlin, executive director of The Center for Election Science; and Drew Penrose, legal and policy director of FairVote.
We will discuss the problems with our existing plurality voting system and examine two alternatives: approval voting, favored by The Center of Election Science, and ranked choice voting, favored by FairVote. Both organizations strive to make our democracy more efficient, effective, and representative.
As is customary, we'll also have an update on the work of the American Solidarity Party.
Next week, we anticipate returning to our analysis of the UN Declaration on Human Rights.
